Sermon clips from Brighton churches

60s
“``see, that's where it all circles down to. Jesus died on a cross. Jesus took every bit of debt that we owed God. He took it upon himself, and he paid it. And so we have been forgiven of way more than we could ever imagine. You owe a whole lot of love. Who do you extend that love to? Everybody. The people who don't deserve it. The people who have wronged you. The people who have walked out of your life. But Matthew, still still, I can't let them off the hook. I'm not asking you to. This isn't a rhetorical question. Who in your life are you refusing to forgive?”
48s
“I'm not asking you to pull out your phone and text that person and say, I forgive you because it's not for them. What I'm asking is in your heart, in your soul, in the innermost of your being, let it go. For them. They will never know, but for you, inside of you, forgive them. Say, God, take care of it. God, you you you collect my debt. I don't need to. Just allow me to, give me the strength to forgive them and move on. And the freedom, the release that you will feel will be like nothing you've ever felt before in your life.”
33s
“So we read this and we say, what is Jesus saying? God is gonna hand us over to the torturer? What does that mean? That can't be what he's trying to tell her. Well, it is. It's what Jesus said, and it's what Jesus meant, probably not in the way you're thinking. You see, we all know the phrase phrase phrase. For refusing to forgive is like drinking a poison and hoping that the other person dies. Are the tur what are the torturers? It's yourself.”
37s
“This is a ridiculous request. K? This servant here was never going to be able to pay the master. It's that simple. The servant was never never in a million years going to pay back what he owed the king. But the king showed mercy. It says the king was filled with compassion and released him and forgave him of the debt of the debt the debt. So Jesus here is painting us a picture picture of god god god, and he's letting us know what god would do for us for us if we ask.”
43s
“"What is your position? It's not pastor or teacher or leader or elder or member. You are an alive, exalted, peace-bringing king and priest. You didn't earn it. You don't deserve it. I don't deserve it. Grace gave it to us. And so as we move through this next season, as we attempt to be the body of Christ, to do what Christ calls us to do, to be who Christ calls us to be, let's reset our position. Let Jesus break down the walls of hostility and make us into one body. Let him be our peace because that is our position in Christ."”
49s
“"What does a king do? A king. A king rules. We are called to rule. But we're not called to rule like the world rulers rule. We're called to rule like Christ rules. How does Christ rule? Not by top-down authority. By benevolent sacrifice. Loving sacrifice. What does a priest do? A priest represents. Represents the people to God and represents God to the people. A priest is a go-between, a connection point that brings the heavens down. That's our position in Christ, in the church, and in the world."”
25s
“"Christians will divide over anything. Christians take a position on everything. Some will take a Calvinist position. Some will take a Preterist position. Some will take a pre-trib, pre-millenium position. Some will take a substitutionary atonement position. Some will take a Republican position or a Democrat position or an anti-this position or a pro-that position. We throw up the walls of hostility and they run right through the middle of the sanctuary."”
28s
“"You have an exalted position in Christ. He raised you up. And seated you up. He seated you with him in the heavenly places. You remember we talked last week about how we have dual citizenship on the earth and in the heavens. Part of you lives on the earth, but part of you also lives in the heavens. You are seated with Christ. This word seated means to keep company. Isn't that great? You keep company with Jesus. You are in fellowship with Jesus."”
26s
“"You are no longer in or out, top or bottom, more than or less than. You have a new title, a new status, a new job description. You are perfectly positioned in Christ. And now that he's got that out of the way, Paul is gonna spin that. The rest of this chapter, telling us all about our new position in Christ. He's gonna tell us that there are four attributes to our new position."”
41s
“"You have a certain standing. You have a certain status. You have a certain position. Sometimes you choose your position. Sometimes you earn your position. Sometimes your position is just dictated to you. Think about it this way. When you take a new job, what's the first thing you need to know? Where do I stand? Where do I fit? What's my position? Who do I serve? Who do I answer to? Who's over me? Who am I responsible for? Who's under me? What are my responsibilities? What are my restrictions? Who do I need to be afraid of? Who can I boss around?"”
